Manchester City led out by 102-year-old Jewish mascot!

That accolade goes to Preston fan Bernard Jones, who at the age of 105, led his team out against Sheffield Wednesday on the opening weekend of last season.

David Silva made sure City were in the driving seat with the second goal on the 21st minute before Raheem Sterling added the third on the 47th minute of play to claim maximum points for the defending champions.

'I can play either in the centre or wide, I can do whatever the manager thanks is best for the team.

"When he plays five minutes, he plays the best possible, always a smile to help. I am feeling comfortable both ways". Guardiola defended Sane ahead of this match and the breakthrough goal settled him into an accomplished showing.

But this season, Bernardo Silva was the first one. After an global break, it's always a mystery how you'll come back, and Fulham asked us a lot of questions.

"It's not about "I don't like you anymore" or "I prefer this one or the other one". Sterling's ball down the right flank found Bernardo, who cleverly keeps the ball on the line before cutting it back to Aguero.

The tests revealed Leroy Sane's disallowed goal in Manchester City's 3-0 win over Fulham would have been allowed to stand if a video assistant referee had been in use.

Mendy missed most of last season after tearing the ACL in his left knee but Guardiola is hoping it is not a major setback. "He is skinny, but he has that sense of intelligence", Guardiola said.

'Mendy was injured, the last days he had a problem with a knee, ' explained Guardiola.
